Spiritual Warfare Archives - Stand Up For The Truth Podcast

Today on Stand Up For The Truth, Host David Fiorazo speaks with Pastor Kevin Minske on church issues and the Book of Revelation – how it applies to the world today. 

About 2,000 years ago on the Greek island of Patmos, Jesus Christ Himself came to his beloved servant John and commanded him to, “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” (Revelation 1:11 ESV)

What were these churches doing right and/or wrong? Were they admonished or encouraged, and why? If your church doesn’t teach through Revelation and biblical prophecy, we encourage you to listen and learn from pastors who teach verse by verse and chapter by chapter, like our guest today does.

The seven letters to the churches in the Book of Revelation were custom designed to specific congregations at that time. There are however, principles from each one we can appreciate and apply to our lives today. Jesus loves us enough to reprove and discipline us when necessary, and to warn us when we are becoming self-sufficient or have given in to subtle compromise. 

Pastor Kevin Minske of Christ the Rock Community Church in DePere, Wisconsin, a small church with a big heart. Kevin took over just two years ago and with his expositional teaching style, he stresses the importance of God’s Word and Christians committing themselves to a local church.

Bible scroll fragments among dazzling artifacts found in Dead Sea Cave of Horror

“In a stunningly rare discovery, some two dozen 2,000-year-old biblical scroll fragments have been excavated from Judean Desert caves during a daring rescue operation. The newly discovered scroll fragments — the first such finds in 60 years — are Greek translations of the books of Zechariah and Nahum from the Book of the Twelve Minor Prophets, and are written in two scribal hands.”

We discuss why it’s important to know and study Bible prophecy and the fact a majority of Christians avoid it. The Bible is nearly one-third prophecy and describes the end times and what we have to look forward to as believers.

It is profitable to study and Revelation promises a blessing to those who read, hear, and obey it. Prophecy also gives us hope for the future, motivation in the present, encourages our faith due to fulfilled prophecies, and inspires us to worship the sovereign Creator who is in complete control of all history.

NEW! Spirit of the Antichrist: The Gathering Cloud of Deception (DVD Set)

The Antichrist will rule the world during the future seven-year Tribulation period foretold in Scripture. Empowered by Satan himself, this evil tyrant will unfurl the greatest deception ever seen on the earth. It will be a time of unprecedented chaos and devastation as the cosmic struggle between good and evil reaches a climax. Although the Church will be rescued before this seven-year Tribulation, the Bible tells us the spirit of the Antichrist is already at work today (1 John 4:3), setting the stage for the great End Times deception. What signs do we see today that expose this gathering cloud of deception?

Indeed, all who want to live in a godly way in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 13 But evil people and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them; 2 Timothy 2:13-14

Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, 4 and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue just as they were from the beginning of creation.” 2 Peter 3:3-4

The godless left is driving the media manipulation as part of a global agenda, and citizens of the divided states are feeling the crisis fatigue. In these uncertain times in which we live, be reminded to cultivate an eternal perspective and to feed your faith, not your fear!

“Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many rooms; if that were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again and will take you to Myself, so that where I am, there you also will be.” John 14:1-3

After all that’s occurred in 2020, we need to cultivate an eternal perspective and pray for wisdom to see world events through the lens of Scripture. Wickedness is rampant and lawlessness is increasing. 

Should believers in Christ fight evildoers and if so, how?

Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. James 4:7-8

Why CHRISTIANS Must FIGHT the EVILDOERS – Scott Lively writes, as a Christian pastor, he is,

“confident in my authority to fight under the banner of Christ for the preservation of this God-blessed Republic and the (indirectly) Bible-based Constitution on which it stands, through an organization that is not overtly evangelical any more than the Continental Army was. As a modern member of the Black Robed Regiment I do not hesitate to fight on a secular battlefield for victories in this world that produce major but largely unseen parallel spiritual victories, just as the forming of this nation did.”

Jesus Himself said in Matthew 10:34 “Do not assume that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.” The notion that Jesus came to establish world peace (prior to the Millennial Kingdom) is actually a misrepresentation of the Christmas story as told in Luke.

Terry James’ Brand-New Book: LAWLESS: The End-Times War Against the Spirit of Antichrist

Peaceful protests with legitimate reasons behind them were viciously swept aside by violent anarchists. We have endured watching rebellion rise to the point of burning down cities, and even murder. There is now a fury to destroy every foundational principle upon which America was founded…

The same political party that, in many cases, champions the insanity runs the very cities and states where the damage is most horrific. Their mayors and governors refuse federal help in putting down the insurrection—and that’s the only way to describe the evil being perpetrated by the lawless among us.

Today, chaos and turmoil inflame daily life within the fever of uncertainty. Geopolitical, cultural, and societal upheaval rip at the heart of America and the world. LAWLESS deals with the spirit of Antichrist in its various deleterious aspects affecting mankind. 

“Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.” (1 John 2:22)

“Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” (1 John 4: 2-3)

After all that’s occurred with rampant cheating, election tampering, ballot-harvesting, and voter fraud on such a massive scale, do we just pray and rely on the courts? Where do we go from here? Don’t lose heart! Surrender it to the Lord. “Get on our knees and then on our feet. We must keep praying and then get up and take action.” Scott Lively

“The days are coming, declares the LORD, when they will no longer say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought the Israelites up out of the land of Egypt.’ Instead they will say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives, who brought and led the descendants of the house of Israel up out of the land of the north and all the other lands to which He had banished them.’ ” Jeremiah 23:7-8

TODAY’S GUEST: Dr. Ragy Girgis, MD, an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry at the Columbia University department of psychiatry. His book is called, “On Satan, Demons, and Psychiatry: Exploring Mental Illness.”

Dr. Girgis hopes to help change misconceptions that have historically pervaded Christianity by educating both laity and clergy about serious mental illness. It will accomplish this goal via an in-depth, exegetic examination of biblical accounts of what may have been untreated serious mental illness from the perspective of a psychiatrist and Christian.

Check out the book! On Satan, Demons, and Psychiatry: Exploring Mental Illness in the Bible

The goal of this book is to help change misconceptions that have historically pervaded Christianity by educating both laity and clergy about serious mental illness. It will accomplish this goal via an in-depth, exegetic examination of biblical accounts of what may have been untreated serious mental illness from the perspective of a psychiatrist and Christian.

1) serious mental illness was likely present and relatively common in biblical times, and similar in phenomenology to how it manifests today, and 2) some instances of demon-possession and exorcisms as described in the Bible could, in a post-Enlightenment narrative, be better explained by occurring in the context of untreated mental illness, and that this could reveal a great deal of information about the biblical view of mental illness.

Some of these accounts are from the Old Testament and some from the New Testament. Each essay will provide an in-depth examination of the biblical account from the perspective of a board-certified psychiatrist who is an expert in the field of serious mental illness and who is also a practicing Christian.

WE DISCUSS:

misconceptions that Christians have about mental illness, depression and medication, Christians in the science and medical fields, mental illness in the pages of Scripture, King Saul’s psychotic depression and paranoia, David’s extremes of elation and deep depression, Jonah’s narcissism, Nebuchadnezzar’s breakdown, and the miraculous healings performed by Jesus.
